1. Three different kinds of food are tested on three groups of rats for 5 weeks. The objective is to
check the difference in mean weight (in grams) of the rats per week. Apply one-way ANOVA
using a 0.05 significance level to the following data:
Food 1 8 12 19 8 6 11
Food 2 4 5 4 6 9 7
Food 3 11 8 7 13 7 9
2. Three types of fertilizers are used on three groups of plants for 5 weeks. We want to check if
there is a difference in the mean growth of each group. Using the data given below apply a one-
way ANOVA test at 0.05 significant level
Fertilizer-1 6 8 4 5 3 4
Fertilizer-2 8 12 9 11 6 8
Fertilizer-3 13 9 11 8 7 12
